Try and I try and I try to look away It doesn't mean that it'll happen anyway I watch as they all look away They don't have the stomach for this The image that's burned in my brain Won't let me ignore my good conscience They try to hide our suffering Controlling lies, the lies they sing It's right in front of me Try and I try and I try to look away The fighting inside is the reason that I stay Try and I try and I try to look away It doesn't mean that it'll happen anyway The people that live in the streets The children struggling just to eat Our families sent overseas And claiming it's necessary, oh! They try to hide our suffering Controlling lies, the lies they sing It's right in front of me Try and I try and I try to look away The fighting inside is the reason that I stay Try and I try and I try to look away It doesn't mean that it'll happen anyway Program your mind I don't wanna be I don't wanna be among the sheep I don't wanna follow in my sleep I don't wanna be left for dead in the street I don't wanna throw I don't wanna throw away my soul I don't wanna do the things they know And it's gonna make me into an animal Try and I try and I try to look away The fighting inside is the reason that I stay Try and I try and I try to look away It doesn't mean that it'll happen anyway Try and I try and I try Look away I give but I gave up the fight I create I live and I live of a lie I'm tired of saying it so I have to look away
